"Fear of ICE pushes Washington DC daycare workers into hiding" | U.S. | EL PAÍS English
"It’s about 10.30am, time to take the children out for a walk. The teachers settle the youngest into double strollers and take the older ones by the hand. Then they walk down the narrow, tree-lined street where Delia’s daycare operates, in a residential neighborhood of Washington, D.C. It won’t be a long outing. Since President Donald Trump stepped up his offensive against immigrants in the capital last year, the daycare workers — all vulnerable to deportation — avoid going very far. They used to take the children to the neighborhood public library, the capital’s free museums or the zoo. Now they have gone nearly a year without doing so."
